may think his one or two cows in so

make no difference, and SO may his
neighbors on his right hand ard on his

and among them all they defeat the
ends most desirable to gain, IS good

1T is not good economy to keep
cow which does not make first-class
butter and good quantity of it. It
costs nearly as much to keep cow
which will make but six pounds Of but
ter week while she gives milk and
will 60 dry two months before calving
again, and prove farrow two years in
five at that, as it does one which will
make her eight to ten pounds of butter
in week and bother her owner to dry
her of before her period of CESSATION is
closed, and give her owner a calf
promptly every year. But little argu-
ment need be used to prove which of
the two sorts of cows will be most
profitable.
ut is duty the farmer owes to HIM
self to see that his cows are paying
him fair price for the food and atten-
ton he is giving them. If they are not
thus paying profit to their owner,
surely there is no profit in keeping
them longer" IN. Z. Farmer.

KEEP ONLY THE BEST.

Why Every Cow In tho Herd Should He
Up to tho Highcst Standard.
In dairying as in every other kind of
business, what it pays to do at all, it
pays to do well. 1t is not mark of
economy or good judgment to keep a
lot of nondescripts in herd of milch
cows. lot of Indifferent or nearly
worthless creatures to keep down the
average and reduce profits. 1t costs
no more to keep good cows than poor
ones. Every member of the herd
should be up to the highest possible
standard. In this line of thought and
suggestion writer says: If the
farmer finds sheep profitable on his
hill pastures, he studies their peculiar
tiles, calculates the market, and finds
what is for his interest to breed,
whether for wool or for mutton or
both. and shapes his course according
ly. So in the dairy, if fine butter is to
be the speciality. cows that give good
quantity of rich milk are desirable.
Very likely the mind will run to the
comedy Jerseys, for in this breed. it
will be conceded, we have the best dis
tinctively butter cow.
'.But every COW of whichever breed
may be chosen. will not possess to de-
sirable degree those qualities which
will make her continuance in the dairy
desirable. Not every COW because she
happens to have Jersey blood in her
veins, will make butter of quantity
which will suit the present fastidious-
ness of the market One COW of a dairy
may give good quality of milk. but
her butter lack good color and even
right texture. One COW of this kind in

Young Ladies' Cooking Clubs Formed for
Highly Useful Purposes.
1t is now quite fashionable diver
sion for young ladies and girls to form
clubs for the purpose of learning how
to cook both plain and fancy articles of
food. Clubs generally number eight
or ten girls. Each one cooks at home
some one article suitable for luncheon.
and then all meet at the house of one
of the members, where the table is set
and every thing is in readiness for their
entertainment. The young lady hostess
provides one substantial course, such as
chops and peas, or beefsteak and to-
matO sauce. Every thing else is con-
tributed by the guests, who, when they
arrive promptly at the hour stated.
hand to the servant whatever they have
prepared. with directions whether it is
to be kept hot or placed on the table
Just as it is. etc. The hostess, after
setting the table tastefully, orders three
or four sets of plates heated. and extra
knives and forks placed near at hand.
After the arrival of the guests, lunch-
eOn..is Immediately announced and is
more or less elaborate, as the case may
be.
1t has been my privilege to watch the
growth of one or more of these clubs,
and in order to stimulate young people
to follow the good example of these en-
terprising and surprisingly successful
cooks, l ventured to ask for their reci-
pes, and in sending them to me they
kindly enclosed the menu of their last
luncheon. and described the table
decorations. The lunch cards were
made of yellow blotting paper. on
which the names were written with
gold paint. Through the corner Of
each card was thrust yellow daffOdil.
Under the bowl of flowers which serv-
ed as center piece was q square of yell
low blotting-paper, on which was
painted, in rough outline with gold
paint. dainty jonquil pattern. which
looked quite like the shadow Of the
bright yellow blossoms in the bowl.
The napkins were Japanese, of dull
yellow color. Oranges were arranged
with yellow bananas on either side OF
the center-piece. The prize consisted
of a string of amber beads.
With very little trouble. the effect
produced was quite novel and pretty.
and can be copied readily. unlike
many things that require the outlay Of
much time and money. The prize at
these clubs is awarded to her who has
the most votes for what she has cooked,

And the pain awoke that is never dead.
Though it sometimes sleeps, and again

And the eyes of my aby-queen.
Yet with trees about where the brown birds

And with long green grass above.

Beyond the reach of our love;
Whatever bafalls in the coarse loud world,
We know she win never wake
When thought OF the sorrow she might have

Twas almost glad for her sake.
Tears might have tired those kissed-closed
